Africa Must Wake Up - Nas (奈斯)/Damian Marley[00:00:00]

Morning to you man[00:00:08]

Morning to you love[00:00:12]

Hey I say I say[00:00:24]

Africa must wake up the sleeping sons of jacob[00:00:28]

For what tomorrow may bring may a better day come[00:00:32]

Yesterday we were kings can you tell me young ones[00:00:35]

Who are we today yeah now[00:00:39]

Africa must wake up the sleeping sons of jacob[00:00:42]

For what tomorrow may bring may a better day come[00:00:46]

Yesterday we were kings can you tell me young ones[00:00:49]

Who are we today yeah now[00:00:53]

The black oasis ancient africa the sacred[00:00:56]

The sleeping giant science art is your creation[00:01:00]

I dreamed that we could visit old kemet[00:01:03]

Your history is too complex and rigid for some western critics[00:01:06]

They want the whole subject diminished[00:01:10]

But africa's the origin of all the world's religions[00:01:12]

We praise bridges that carried us over[00:01:15]

The battle fronts of sudanic soldiers the task put before us[00:01:18]

Do you hear me now[00:01:22]

Africa must wake up the sleeping sons of jacob[00:01:23]

For what tomorrow may bring may a better day come[00:01:27]

Yesterday we were kings can you tell me young ones[00:01:30]

Who are we today yeah now[00:01:34]

Africa must wake up[00:01:37]

The sleeping sons of Jacob[00:01:39]

For what tomorrow may bring[00:01:41]

May a better day come[00:01:42]

Yesterday we were Kings[00:01:44]

Can you tell me young ones[00:01:46]

Who are we today[00:01:48]

Who are we today the slums diseases aids[00:01:50]

We need that all to fade we cannot be afraid[00:01:53]

So who are we today[00:01:56]

We are the morning after the makeshift youth[00:01:58]

The slave-ship captured our diaspora is the final chapter[00:02:01]

The ancestral lineage built pyramids[00:02:05]

America's first immigrants the kings and daughters from our waters[00:02:07]

The first architect the first philosophers[00:02:12]

Astronomers the first prophets and the doctors were us us[00:02:14]

Now can we all pray each in his own way[00:02:19]

Teaching and learning we can work it out[00:02:22]

We'll have a warm bed we'll have some warm bread[00:02:26]

Shelter from the storm dread and we can work it out[00:02:29]

Mother nature feeds all in farming and drought[00:02:33]

And though selfish in ways not to share is out[00:02:36]

What's a tree without root lion without tooth[00:02:39]

A lie without truth you hear me out[00:02:43]

Africa must wake up the sleeping sons of Jacob[00:02:46]

For what tomorrow may bring may a better day come[00:02:50]

Yesterday we were kings can you tell me young ones[00:02:53]

Who are we today yeah now[00:02:57]

Africa must wake up the sleeping sons of Jacob[00:03:00]

What tomorrow may bring may some more love come[00:03:04]

Yesterday we were kings I tell ya young bloods[00:03:07]

The world is yours today[00:03:11]

Dadyahow daali waayey nabada diideen[00:03:13]

We want to thank y'all everybody out there[00:04:40]

This is nas damian marley 'distant relatives'[00:04:45]

We're all distant relatives no matter where you from where you live[00:04:51]

How near or far africa China Japan afghanistan israel[00:04:55]

We're all fam we're all distant relatives[00:05:01]

So that's why we came together one of the reasons[00:05:06]

Why myself and damian came together[00:05:09]

'Cause we all come from one place and that's africa[00:05:13]

That's right you too and you[00:05:17]

The whole world[00:05:20]

We're all family we're just spread out all over the place[00:05:22]

So to all my distant relatives let's take it back home[00:05:27]

Africa must wake up[00:05:32]

The sleeping sons of Jacob[00:05:34]

For what tomorrow may bring[00:05:35]

May a better day come[00:05:37]

Yesterday we were Kings[00:05:39]

Can you tell me young ones[00:05:41]

Who are we today yeah now[00:05:42]

Africa must wake up[00:05:46]

The sleeping sons of Jacob[00:05:47]

For what tomorrow may bring[00:05:49]

May a better day come[00:05:51]

Yesterday we were Kings[00:05:53]

Can you tell me young ones[00:05:54]
